Main Body

Temperature plays an important role in various atmospheric phenomena for Monsoon & global warming effect but is distributed unevenly.

Various factors for it:

1Latitudinal reason: Regions on equator receive more insolation and thus temperature is high. Polar regions with high latitudes have low temperature.
2Altitude: Going higher on decreases temperature. E.g., 1°C reduces after every 165m
3Insolation: The direct rays on equator keeps temperature high. Slant rays on poles delays Arctic.
4Winds & Jet streams: Helps in heat balance.
5Coastal environment: Sea breeze keeps cooling. Ocean currents influence temperature (Cold & warm currents). E.g., Gyashio (cold) current in polar region.

These are some factors apart from it, forestation, green environment soil cover and less commercialization also keeps temperature cool.
